There isn't a good linkage between full sales price and
rental rates either. Taking down payments and mortgages
into account gives you positive or negative cash flow.
Paying it off in advance gives you larger or smaller return
on investment.

Rental incomes are going to be lower than good mutual
funds percentage wise most of the time. The advantage
is going to be the combination of inflation growing the
rental rates slowly across time and depreciation masking
rental income in the first years.

Stocks do not depreciate, rental units do. Big tax difference.
